After rebirth, I joined forces with my mortal enemy to seek revenge.

Along with the jute edict comes the bright spring sun. Su Jinghui was promoted to Zhongshu Ling, while Pei Jiaoran was promoted to Zhongshu Shilang. The phaser harmonizes the cauldron and the cauldron, and coordinates yin and yang. This bright spring day seems to prove this point. Also promoted were the Minister of Hubu and Wu Lingjia. One was promoted to Shangshu Fanduzhi, and the other was promoted to Minister of Hubu.

Pei Jiaoran was not surprised by the personnel changes in the Ministry of Household Affairs. The household department is always an important position, and the position cannot always be vacant. As for Wu Lingjia's achievements in Heshuo, she deserved her promotion.

Standing in Zhongshu's public apartment outside the province, Pei Jiaoran looked down at the scenery downstairs with a smile on his face. It's just that she has walked through the imperial palace countless times. In the past, she came here as the Minister of Household Affairs, but now she comes here as the deputy of the Zhongshu Province.

Although he is no longer in charge of the household department, the power of Zhongshu Shilang should not be underestimated. For example, it would be best for her to receive the Jianghuai Salt and Iron Transport Envoy as Zhongshu's Minister, which she had longed for.

She was thinking about the servant coming in to report that Yuan Yanchong was waiting for her downstairs.

"Please come up, Prime Minister Yuan Zhong." Pei Jiaoran said with a smile.

When Yuan Yan rushed over, Pei Jiaoran was sitting at the table making tea.

Looking at Pei Jiaoran who was calm and calm in front of him, Yuan Yanchong looked at him carefully. In just two or three days, she had already transformed from the Minister of the Ministry of Finance to the Minister of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China. Although both are of good quality

Quite the same, but the powers they hold are quite different. The powers of the Secretary of the Ministry of Hubu are limited to the Ministry of Hubu, while the Minister of Zhongshu assists the Zhongshu Ling in handling provincial affairs and assisting in the administration of the country. In other words, his status is equivalent to that of the prime minister.

"Congratulations on getting what you wanted." Yuan Yanchong sat down opposite Pei Jiaoran and said warmly.

Hearing this, Pei Jiaoran handed over the brewed tea, his eyes shining, "How can I get what I wanted now? There is Su Jinghui above me."

"He's just a target."

After giving Yuan Yanchong a smile, Pei Jiaoran stood up, locked the door, and motioned for him to enter the inner room with him. There is another resting place in the public room. Once the door is locked outside, it will be difficult for others to pry out any information.

"Are the records in that account book reliable? What they mean is that you have just been promoted to the position of Vice Minister of Zhongshu, so there is no need to get too involved." Yuan Yanchong looked around, "You must have confidants in the Ministry of Accounts for so long. ? Let him expose this matter, and the Yushitai will naturally handle the rest."

I know that this is the result of discussions between Cui Shao, Cen Xi and others. The purpose is to allow her to quickly secure her position as the Vice Minister of Zhongshu. I'll drag Su Jinghui down someday.

"Of course there are confidants. But it's best to let the Yushitai find out about this matter. The household department has no choice but to cooperate. Let the Bibu people go to the Yushitai to report it." After a pause, Pei Jiaoran continued: "Putting up a flag like this It is more secure for Yushitai to handle the matter. My people must be used in the right place."

Although he was told by Cen Xi from the beginning that his proposal would be rejected by Pei Jiaoran. But Yuan Yanchong couldn't help but give it a try.

Seeing that Yuan Yanchong remained silent, Pei Jiaoran smiled and said, "What do you think after reading the account book?"

"Why don't you eat both sides together? Is it because of Li Xiujing?" Yuan Yanchong couldn't help but ask.

Pei Jiaoran burst into laughter, his eyes filled with sarcasm. Although Li Xiujing liked her very much, it was not to the point where she would give up her power because of love. She has always made a clear distinction between the two.

"Eating too much in a hurry can easily lead to death. The current situation is balanced, but once this situation is broken, a lot of trouble will arise." Pei Jiaoran took out a pen and paper and started writing, "Zuo Shence will obviously suffer more. People are jealous. If you touch them, the risk is small and the reward is high. Cao Wenzhong is a good partner."

Zuo Shence and Right Shence are at odds with each other in face and heart. Whether it was Lieutenant Liu in the past or Cao Wenzhong today. They may share the same hatred when facing a common enemy or court officials, but in fact the left and right armies have always restrained and restrained each other. It just belongs to the balance between the Shence Army.

Bai Zhizhen is now away from home, and because of King Wu, she is showing off her power. Based on her understanding of Cao Wenzhong, she must be thinking of ways to punish Bai Zhizhen. As long as the knife is handed over, Cao Wenzhong will be happy to do it.

In the political arena, sometimes the distinction between ourselves and the enemy is not so clear. We can be enemies today and allies tomorrow.

Thinking that it was almost time, Yuan Yan stood up and left. Inform Pei Jiaoran to go to Ci'en Temple tonight.

"Okay. After leaving Zhongshu and going to other provinces, go to the Ministry of Finance and have a chat with Wai Lang, the member of the branch office. You know what to say." Pei Jiaoran said with a smile.

After looking at Pei Jiaoran, Yuan Yan raised his head.

After going straight, Pei Jiaoran refused the Zhongshu Province dinner. After returning to Chongyifang, I changed my clothes, took Mi Li and went straight to Ci'en Temple.

Today there is a Dharma gathering at Ci'en Temple, and there are many pilgrims. It is convenient for a few people to discuss secretly.

After entering the temple and walking a few steps, I was called by a familiar voice.

Hearing the sound, Pei Jiaoran turned around and saw Wu Lingjia. There was a slight surprise on his face, but he calmed down in an instant, "They still invited you here."

"After all, I am also the daughter of Duke Changli. Now that I am the Minister of Household Affairs, they naturally want to fawn over and rely on me." Wu Lingjia looked at her and smiled sternly, "This is not a good thing for me."

"Tsk, I guess it was Cui Shao and Wang Guolao's idea. Anyway, you have to be careful with them."

"Jiajia, don't worry. I can still tell who is the enemy and who is the friend."

While the two were talking, they had already arrived at the door of the meditation room where they agreed to meet. When you knock on the door and enter, you will see the same familiar faces, but with the addition of Yuan Yanchong.

The servants left after serving tea as usual and stood guard at the door.

Yuan Yanchong glanced at Cui Shao and saw him nodding. He took out the account book from his sleeve and said, "I re-checked this based on the account book you provided. Generally speaking, there are no omissions. Bibei has arranged for someone to come to the Yushitai to deliver the letter."

After flipping through the account book, Pei Jiaoran looked at Cen Xi, "What do you think, Mr. Cen?"

"We have discussed that since you are not willing to swallow up two parties at the same time, you cannot take advantage of You Shence and the gang. Those who should be used as military resources will be used as military resources, and the rest will go to Zuozang." Cen Xi glanced at her and continued: "Cao Wenzhong's side. I will arrange for someone to convince him, and you don't need to intervene."

Cen Xi's proposal was exactly what she wanted. Pei Jiaoran nodded when he heard this.

"If you want to use the knife, be more ruthless. We also found out those merchants who pretended to be military members to make some money for Zuo Zang." Cui Shao said coldly, "There are Dharma gatherings in Chang'an these days, and many people are not here. At home. It’s a good time to do it.”

Pei Jiaoran raised his eyes and looked at Yuan Yanchong.

Only Yuan Yan was heard saying: "When I went to the Ministry of Finance today, I stayed with Wai Lang, a member of Duzhi, for a long time. Presumably Duzhi, Taifu Temple and the eunuchs must have learned about the news, but Zhang Rang didn't It’s better to interfere too much in the affairs of the Shence Army. While they are still hesitating, we can take action. After so many years of fighting between Nan Ya and Bei Si, they should finally get a big win."

"Excellent. It looks like nothing's wrong."

Hearing this, Cen Xi turned to look at her and said calmly: "You have laid such a big plan and you don't want to see the results?"

"The people just took away the house and ransacked it. I guess it won't be the turn of Mr. and Mrs. Zhongshu to clear up the stolen goods." Pei Jiaoran stroked the curly grass pattern on his sleeve, "Huan Qi was defeated and captured. The chaos in western Zhejiang. Someone should clean it up."

As soon as she finished speaking, Wang Guolao looked at her and said coldly, "So that's what you had in mind."

Pei Jiaoran had a gentle smile on his face, "Zuo Zang relies on Jianghuai for most of his wealth. If I don't take the initiative, I will let others take advantage of me."

Although he knew what Pei Jiaoran said was right, Cui Shao still looked unhappy.

Ignoring Cui Shao's dissatisfaction, Pei Jiaoran turned his head and looked at Cen Xi, "I have already drawn up the charter. I intend to start with the reform of water transportation."

After speaking, Pei Jiaoran took a piece of paper from his sleeve and handed it over.

"You take a look first." Pei Jiaoran smiled, "It is inevitable that some places are not perfect. Don't blame Mr. Cen."

Looking at her, Cen Xi took the paper and read it in front of the candle.
